It was a cold and clear day in our nation's capital. While the rest of the country was going about its business, some marching off to vote for their candidate in the midterm elections, others just heading to work for the day, Jennifer Mercurio was on her way to witness history. Vice President and General Counsel for the Entertainment Consumers Association, Mercurio was happy to see the steps of the Supreme Court of the United States were full of supporters for her cause. For that day, November 2nd 2010, was the culmination of a longtime struggle for Mercurio and the ECA. Not only did she work on the amicus brief for the Justices to read before the case but she herself is a longtime gamer and has fought for videogame rights most of her career. That day would be the day that the highest legal authority of the land would once and for all hear the arguments that would help the nine Justices decide whether videogames deserve the same First Amendment rights as books, movies and all other pieces of art.
